Growing up on a farm was the best. I remember loving that expanse of space. The sky at night was so clear, I could see every star.

I remember when I was growing up. My great wish was to understand who I was and how I fit in the world.

Growing up, I remember the 'Cheers' finale and 'M*A*S*H' and all these amazing finales, and I remember them being very, very important.

My family had a business where they worked with gravestones, and I remember growing up and playing in cemeteries like it was a normal playground.

Oak, granite,
Lilies by the road,
Remember me?
I remember you.
Clouds brushing
Clover hills,
Remember me?
Sister, child,
Grown tall,
Remember me?
I remember you.

To me, the thing about anime is that it's so adult-oriented. I remember going to Suncoast growing up, and you see 'Akira' there with the little 'Not for Kids' sticker on it. That always made an impact on me.
